Presentation

Groundbreaking theory, big data, and compute power — with this trifecta, the extraordinary advent of deep learning seems almost inevitable. It propels machine learning to new heights across many industries. As we ride this wave of progress, still in acceleration, we come to a new class of challenges akin to those of traditional machine learning — but now the stakes are higher. In this presentation Luba Gloukhova will cover great challenges deep learning has already overcome and those that still remain.
